D. Even though slaves were still considered property, some slaves had kind masters

Explanation:

According to Calhoun’s argument, the blacks were much better while serving as slaves in America than they were when they were free. This was because of racial inferiority. Since that is inferior, they are given better from the whites

Calhoun also argues that the slaves were better than free workers. This was, therefore, a common argument in the regions of the south. The slaves were better because they were treated well by their masters since the master aimed to take care of their investments.
